Chapter 594 Return
Zhenjun Jin Li took Meng Zhang all the way, driving away, killing the cloud beasts, and collecting the essence of the Nine Heavens.
Meng Zhang's limited cultivation can play a limited role. Even if Zhenjun Jin Li is generous, he cannot be too cheap.
Meng Zhang calculated that it had been almost half a month since he entered the nine days, and he had not gained much.
If you enter here alone, the situation may be worse. It seems that collecting the nine-day essence is not an easy task.
It would be better for those monks from major families to be cared for by powerful elders. Cultivators from small sects like Meng Zhang seem to be very difficult.
Zhenjun Jin Li can't take Meng Zhang with him every time. Meng Zhang will have to think of some new ways in the future.
Generally speaking, if a late-stage Jindan monk enters within nine days the first few times, it is best not to delay it for too long. If you stay for about half a month, you should leave.
Because the rules of heaven and earth within the nine heavens are special, it puts great pressure on cultivators. Even if Meng Zhang is gifted, he is unwilling to delay here for too long.
Jin Li Zhenjun naturally knew this truth, but this time she got very good results. The opportunity was rare. Who knew if she would have such good luck next time? She was still unwilling to go back here.
Seeing that Jin Li Zhenjun was a little embarrassed, Meng Zhang took the initiative to ask and go back alone.
Along the way, Meng Zhang performed very well, fully demonstrating his strength and alertness.
Jin Li Zhenjun hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Before parting, Jin Li Zhenjun also specifically warned Meng Zhang that he would not cause any trouble on the way back, and leave the nine days directly, trying to avoid trouble.
Meng Zhang naturally fully accepted Jin Li Zhenjun's kindness and agreed.
After parting with Jin Li Zhenjun, Meng Zhang felt that he was in good condition and should try to stay for two more days.
The terrain within the nine heavens is extremely complex and changes frequently. The spiritual consciousness and exploration spells of cultivators are suppressed and they cannot explore too far away.
In this case, even if the cultivator has a good memory, he may get lost.
At this time, Meng Zhang simply gave up finding the way and moved forward directly in the direction sensed by his spiritual sense.
Meng Zhang's return route was not the same route. This route was still relatively safe. Not only did he not encounter any danger, he gained a lot.
Meng Zhang not only harvested two groups of nine-day essences, but also captured several cubs of cloud beasts.
Taiyi Sect has a special beast control hall, which is responsible for reproduction and taming various monsters, and is used by the sects.
The elder in the sect, Hu Jing, the former leader of the Beast Control Hall, practiced special mental methods and could use the spiritual pets he raised to strengthen his combat power.
The combat power of cloud beasts within the Nine Heavens is generally stronger than that of monster beasts in the Junchen Realm, and has more potential.
Cloud beasts have much higher intelligence than ordinary beasts and should be able to be tamed.
The only thing I was a little worried about was whether the cloud beast could adapt to the new environment and survive and continue to grow after leaving such a special environment within nine days.
Meng Zhang flew along his spiritual sense route for about ten days before he arrived at the border of the nine heavens.
Meng Zhang jumped hard and jumped out of the nine heavens and returned to the outside world.
Meng Zhang first felt a dizzy moment and his mind was dizzy. Then he quickly returned to normal, and felt a relaxation all over his body. The invisible pressure that had originally enveloped him disappeared completely.
After leaving the Nine Heavens, the adverse effects of the Nine Heavens on the body will naturally disappear quickly.
At this time, Meng Zhang suddenly remembered the cloud beast cub he had captured.
He took out the spirit pet bag and saw that the cubs of the cloud beasts that were originally alive became weak and listless. One of them was in the worst condition and was already dying.
Meng Zhang did not dare to continue to delay, so he immediately accelerated and rushed downwards.
He rushed back to Baicaopo, the mountain gate, handed over several cubs of cloud beasts to elder Hu Jing, and briefly explained his origin.
At this time, the worst-case puppies have begun to turn into clouds and are about to disappear.
He specializes in his profession, and Hu Jing's attainments in the way of controlling beasts is far above Meng Zhang. She took a few cubs of cloud beasts and went to find a way to settle them.
Shortly after Meng Zhang returned to the sect, many things came to him.
First, the eldest disciple Niu Dawei asked for a visit and reported to him about the recent affairs in the sect.
Although Meng Zhang handed over most of the affairs in the sect to Niu Dawei, he still listened to his reports from time to time and gave him various guidance.
Since the peace was restored, Taiyi Gate quickly recovered its vitality. The extensive development of the Demon Wind Gobi and the increasingly frequent commercial exchanges with Dafeng City have brought more and more wealth to Taiyi Gate.
With the number of mortals currently owned by Taiyi Sect, the number of people awakening spiritual roots is increasing. Even though Taiyi Sect has long raised the threshold for entry, it can still ensure that enough disciples can join.
Meng Zhang sat in the seat, half open his eyes, and quietly listened to Niu Dawei's report.
Niu Dawei handled these trivial daily affairs very well.
After Jin Li Zhenjun agreed to join the Jiuqu Alliance, Taiyi Sect, as a force under Jin Li Zhenjun, naturally became a member of the Jiuqu Alliance.
The relationship between Taiyi Gate and Dafeng City and Gu Yue family became increasingly close, and they were gradually integrated into the Jiuqu Alliance.
Soon, Niu Dawei talked about the issues of the Hedong Branch of the Huanglian Sect and the Huoyun Sect.
Meng Zhang and Taiyi Sect are currently unable to participate in the battle between the Yuanshen True Lord. The target he is currently targeting is the forces under the command of the Zhenjun Yue Feng.
Taiyi Sect is currently facing the two forces of the Huanglian Sect, Hedong Branch and Huoyun Sect.
Of course, Meng Zhang did not want the other party to unite, but instead found ways to differentiate and disintegrate it.
Using the exploitation of the endless sea of sand by Zhenjun Yue Feng, the Taiyi Sect uses interests as bait to lure the Huoyun Sect to secretly participate in the smuggling between the Taiyi Sect.
The word "Li" is the first, and he is not a direct subordinate of Zhenjun Yue Feng, so the Huoyun Sect easily took the bait.
Without even the Taiyi Sect secretly inciting, in order to expand its profits, the Huoyun Sect secretly pulled the vassal forces under the Hedong Branch of the Huanglian Sect into the water and began to smuggle various special resources produced by endless sand seas.
In fact, the senior executives of the Hedong branch are not ignorant of the Huoyun Sect’s private small actions.
However, they were also angry with the exploitation of Zhenjun Yue Feng, and pretended to be deaf and mute, allowing the Huoyun Sect to act. They even intentionally or unintentionally sold more resources to the Huoyun Sect in various ways.
After all, according to the order of Zhenjun Yue Feng, all the resources of the Endless Shahai were sent to the Shanyue Branch for sale, which would have caused too much damage to the interests of the Hedong Branch.
Taiyi Sect secretly caused this incident, which not only caused internal problems for the other party, but also benefited greatly from the family.
Huoyun sent various resources sold to Taiyi Gate territory. In addition to leaving some of the Taiyi Gate for self-use, most of them were sent to Dafeng City for sale, making a lot of profits from it.
Taiyi Sect has been secretly working hard to maintain this smuggling route, which is not only for the sake of profit, but also for greater goals.
After listening for a long time, Meng Zhang listened to Niu Dawei's report and gave him some careful advice before he asked him to retreat.
Shortly after Niu Dawei retreated, the weak water god general came to him again.
If a person has no future intentions, he will have immediate worries.
Taiyi Sect currently seems to have a vast territory and a lot of income, but with the increasing number of monks in the sect, especially the Jindan stage, it is inevitable to undergo a new round of expansion and obtain more resources.
It is naturally impossible for Taiyi Sect to expand in the direction of Jiuqu Alliance. With a new master on the endless sand sea, it is also impossible to invade.
The northernmost sea of death sand is deserted and has no vitality. Although it can produce some mineral resources and some special spiritual medicines, ordinary humans cannot survive there, and there are no spiritual veins, and their value is not high.
Taiyi Sect currently has no plans to expand there in addition to arranging some monks to go to the Death Sand Sea to obtain resources.
The only possible expansion direction of Taiyi Sect is to the west, continuing to expand towards the depths of the demon wind and Gobi.
In recent years, Taiyi Sect has strengthened its surveillance of the depths of the demon wind and the Gobi Desert. The weak water god general has sneaked in many times to investigate the specific situation there.
The weak water god general brought bad news to Meng Zhang.
The monsters in the Demonic Wind and Gobi Desert retreated all the way in the face of the invasion of the sea clan and were almost unable to support them.
If these monsters cannot withstand the attack of the sea clan and are completely defeated, their only escape direction is the current territory of the Taiyi Sect.
At that time, Taiyi Sect will be the first to face the impact of a large army of monsters. After that, if the sea clan continues to expand, Taiyi Sect will directly face the powerful enemy of the sea clan.
The Taiyi Sect has only ended its last battle for more than 20 years. The elites in the lost sect have no time to replenish, and their vitality has not recovered. If a new battle is to be launched, it is really not a good thing for the Taiyi Sect.
Although Taiyi Sect is currently blessed by Zhenjun Jin Li, Zhenjun Jin Li is not a nanny from Taiyi Sect, nor is it a thug from Taiyi Sect.
Taiyi Sect cannot expect Jin Li Zhenjun to help solve every problem. If a big battle occurs, the main force of the battle will be the Taiyi Sect monks.
After listening to the report of the weak water god general, Meng Zhang had no good idea. He could only order to strengthen the monitoring of the demon wind and gobi Desert and respond at any time. At the same time, Taiyi Sect also began to prepare for the war slowly and prepare for the next battle.
Meng Zhang returned to the sect and handled a lot of sect affairs before he started practicing again.
This time he practiced, he began to try to absorb the essence of the Nine Heavens.
After absorbing the essence of Nine Heavens for the first time, Meng Zhang finally understood why the essence of Nine Heavens was something that the late Jindan monks pursued hard.
Compared to absorbing spiritual energy from the third-level spiritual veins, the Nine Heavens essence brings improvement to cultivators is all-round.
Every time he refines the essence of the Nine Heavens, Meng Zhang will enter a special state, feeling that his entire body and mind have been sublimated, one step closer to the avenue.
Absorbing and refining the essence of the nine heavens is also a test for the Jindan monks. Only the late-stage monks of the Jindan period can successfully absorb and refine them. The more the cultivator has a strong foundation, the more benefits they get from it.
